Better to take it out on the ignorants that infest this group.

Please don't refer to them as that, yes many are mentally challenged,
but they are, after all, cyclists, so you must cut them some slack.

To remind you that this is uk.rec.cycling. I doubt whether an infestee
can infest its own habitat.

How many cars have you crashed in your time? If you're trying to turn
poacher to gamekeeper it would be interesting to see how you would be
treated in what ought to be your natural habitat.

We know little of "Mr Cheerful"'s ability on a bicycle; it might even be
non-existent. That might go a little way towards explaining his total
lack of concern for vulnerable road-users.
Personally, I think he's a sociopath.



I have good abilities at riding a bicycle, motorcycle, car, vans, and
even LGV1
I taught motorcycle roadcraft for many years and have undergone advanced
Police driving courses and I am very proficient on the skidpan.

I am very careful not to run anyone over or crash into anyone.

It ****es me off when incompetents **** the system up by breaking every
rule in the book and even those of common sense, most often this is
demonstrated by cyclists, which is why I will no longer ride a bicycle
on the road. It is just too embarassing to be associated with the
rabble of scum that ride bicycles nowadays.

I drove a few miles today, and during that time I saw 6 cyclists and
everyone of them was breaking the most basic law of the road, by riding
on a footway.

Bicycles could be great again, but only if they are regulated and
controlled.
